I want to press the sample on the audio track, then it should automatically show pitch with pitch offset and 2 knobs to adjust quickly and easily, as there are very small adjustments for drum, percussion to get sweetspot sometimes. when I want to run a eurorack session and want to find sound that I myself created with long sessions with hardware. my isotope pligins have everything in wav that you can also have as a reference. I sent to steinberg that I want it all my samples I bought from steinberg as cubase 12 absolute 5 m.m in wav format so you can have it as a reference bank in sononym. but the problem with sononym is that if you do not have a referee’s bank of sound then it can be completely artificial, and have sononym difficult for different FX and bongo and congas, rather different hihats. same here I use sononym for organization and to find similar sounds quickly. or at least collaborate with type sononym for organization and tag m.m. steinberg have everything they need to make it the best tag pitch on all sounds Finder. And save it in project files or another sample folder. I dont understand cubase have Mediabay looooong time now, and no auto pitch Finder and a knob to tune and fine tune direct in media bay. mediabay does not even have a sample track built in to do all the work there of cutting stems into sample bits and putting them in a newly created folder “samples” sononym has this have to say that I have tried to do it in mediabay which is a disaster and the font is old. This is a must on the cubase roadmap within a year so you do not have to switch between the programs. mediabay does not even have a sample track built in to do all the work there of cutting stems into sample bits and putting them in a newly created folder “samples” sononym has this :) When you have recorded several hours of material and cut everything out in sample bits, I always use sononym to categorize in pitch and sound type. and mediabay will be sick good and smooth, when you have large libraries with extremely many samples and want to create kits quickly for hardware and get the whole drum bus kit in tune immediately. they even worked to get cubase mediabay integration tags ect. it is something you really have to do, please get in touch with steinberg they are just a few who work with this and things take time for them to reach their goal. then it will be mediabay and mediabay pro. I bet we are all willing to pay at least 100euro as a mediabay expansion just like SpectraLayers and SpectraLayers pro. AI can also solve that issue very easily, and with Sononym, I now have a fourth app in my toolbox which helps me match sound & samples in a very deep manner quickly. The more you have and more options you have, the harder it can get to find things. Also, there is an inverse relationship between sample library size and efficiency. But with AI, those 500 hours invested could have been achieved in something like a day or two max (my guess). Building a well tagged sample library was a lot of work, but it really paid of, as I can now really get projects rolling quickly. Over the years, I build a booklet of about 10 pages of RegEx phrases for achieving various tasks related to preparing files for later bulk tagging in Media Bay. Looking at the actual file sizes I was able to separate one shots from loops in bulk as well. I then used a program called “Bulk Rename Utility” in combination with RegEx (regular expressions) to rename my audio files to a certain pre-defined scheme that would help me quickly bulk search & tag files in Media Bay according to certain search criteria in the filename such as A or Db or Dmin or 140bpm aso. So I stayed natively within WAV, wrote BPM and Root-Key info into filename. Converting all files to AIFF (which is also a lossless format but does support tags) would have meant converting 500.000 files from WAV to AIFF. Weekness: It can only write the info into filenames for wavs (as mp3 tag functionality does not work for WAV and Mixed in Key does not support writing tags into BWF chunk headers). I used a program called “Mixed in Key” to auto determine tempo and root key of my samples that had no tags or filename info. I used a combo of three apps that all had their strengths and weekness for achieving one thing: Bulk tagging naked samples (in the sense of samples having no filename info or tags).
